msync(2) -- Synchronize a mapped file
|
|
The msync() function controls the caching operations of a mapped file region. The msync() function can be used to ensure that modified pages in the region are transferred to the file's underlying sto... |
|
munmap(2) -- Unmap a mapped region
|
|
The munmap() function unmaps a mapped file or shared memory region. The addr and len parameters specify the address and length in bytes, respectively, of the region to be unmapped. The len parameter m... |
|
|
mvalid(2) -- Check memory region for validity
|
|
The mvalid() function checks the validity of a memory region. A region is considered to be valid if accesses of the requested type are allowed to all addresses in the region. The header f... |

nfssvc(2) -- Create a remote NFS server
|
|
The use of the nfssvc() function is not supported in customer applications, and the interface is subject to change without notice. It is intended for use solely by nfsd(8). The nfssvc() function start... |
|
ntp_gettime(2) -- Get the date, time, and kernel time error values
|
|
The ntp_gettime() system call returns three read-only values in the ntptimeval structure. The ntptimeval structure members are as follows: The current system time expressed as a Unix timeval structure... |
|
open(2) -- Open a file for reading or writing
|
|
The following two function calls are equivalent: creat(path, mode); open(path, O_WRONLY | O_CREAT | O_TRUNC, mode); The open() and creat() functions establish a connection between the file named by th... |
|
pathconf(2) -- Retrieve file implementation characteristics
|
|
The fpathconf() and pathconf() functions provide a method for an application to determine the current value of a configurable limit or option (variable) that is associated with a file or directory. Fo... |
|
pid_block(2) -- stops (blocks) or resumes (unblocks) the specified process
|
|
The pid_block() function blocks execution of the process until one of the following conditions occurs: The process is unblocked by the pid_unblock() function. A signal is sent to the process. The opti... |
|
pid_unblock(2) -- stops (blocks) or resumes (unblocks) the specified process
|
|
The pid_block() function blocks execution of the process until one of the following conditions occurs: The process is unblocked by the pid_unblock() function. A signal is sent to the process. The opti... |
|
pipe(2) -- Create an interprocess channel
|
|
The pipe() function creates a unidirectional interprocess channel called a pipe, and returns two file descriptors, filedes[0] and filedes[1]. The file descriptor specified by the filedes[0] parameter ... |
|
plock(2) -- Lock the text and/or data segments of a process in memory
|
|
The plock() function locks or unlocks a process's text segments, data segments, or both in physical memory. When locked, the physical pages containing the text or data segment will not be paged out. ... |
|
poll(2) -- Monitor conditions on multiple file descriptors
|
|
The poll() function provides users with a mechanism for multiplexing input/output over a set of file descriptors that reference open streams. For each member of the array pointed to by filedes, poll()... |
|
pread(2) -- read from a file
|
|
The read() function attempts to read nbytes of data from the file associated with the filedes parameter into the buffer pointed to by the buffer parameter. If the value of nbytes is 0 (zero), the read... |
|
priocntl(2) -- manage scheduling properties of process
|
|
The priocntl function is used to change the class, priority, and other scheduling properties of one or more active processes. Processes are divided into four classes: realtime, time-sharing, POSIX rou... |
|
priocntlset(2) -- change scheduling property of a process or set of processes
|
|
This function is used to change the scheduling properties of a running process or group of processes. While the priocntl(2) function performs the same tasks, this function enables you to specify the p... |
